its who liberals are man. they throw shade at everyone else and liberals are the problem. its very simplistic when you think about it all. its always the loud and crying kid that causes all the issues. not the one in the corner being quiet.

How in the world does this end up being about liberals?


Aug 26, 2020, 9:45 AM [ in reply to Re: the kindness of tolerance and inclusivity ]

Are Bette Midler's opinions on economic and social systems connected to her mean tweet? What about her favorite ice cream flavor? Frankly I think it's chocolate and I think this says everything we need to know about chocoholics. Bunch of intolerant jerks.

wait a second...

isn't that what we do on P & R? Throw out crap with a broad shovel that we think makes the other side look bad.

Bette Midler is a liberal so all liberals are pieces of trash!

Fight me!

Ah, I get it. I had no idea she's a liberal, so I was lost from the get go. Social liberal? Economic? Classical? Just in terms of taxation? In terms of all issues except taxation? We have to make sure we're hating the correct category of people here. If she's a fiscal moderate but a social liberal I don't want to go hating on fiscal liberals by mistake.

2024 purple level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

seriously though...


Aug 26, 2020, 11:08 AM

I'm becoming further confused at what everybody believes I ought to think. I think in many ways, understanding the actually meaning of the labels we are forced to take, I am more liberal and progressive than those that think they are liberal and progressive.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpgbadge-ringofhonor-franc1968.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


The confusion isn't your fault.


Aug 26, 2020, 11:36 AM

I've got a friend who considers himself a "leftist" and calls me a "liberal" and thinks I'm wrong about a variety of political issues. From what I can tell, "leftist" is where you like identity politics, cancel culture, and unrealistic solutions to complicated problems, and hate people who think differently from you because they are monsters. "Liberals," meanwhile, are basically conservatives in sheep's clothing who aren't woke and are part of the problem.

I'm not endorsing any of these labels but just describing what I think my friend believes.

2024 purple level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

that is the problem...


Aug 26, 2020, 11:43 AM

and I could be wrong, because I obviously wasn't alive then, but I think (from research) the strength of our ancestors who founded this country was they were able to be tolerant of different thought.

While I do believe Christian ideals helped put this experiment together, this was never a "Christian country." And this was on purpose.

There were a lot of differing views, but acceptance and tolerance and respect for others was a reality. Not there was no nastiness, there was just more openness.

Isn't it weird how she was immediately criticized for her bad tweet and nobody (practically, there's probably at least one idiot out there) bent over backwards to defend her?

don't think it is weird at all***

No, it's not surprising at all.

The leaders appeased the gator in hopes he would eat them last. Midler isn't the first to be eaten but she is one of the first of the leaders. The gator continues...

That is a quality observation, sir, and one I can get behind. Or in front of.

Whatever. Those of you arguing, carry on.

Because Bette Midler is the spokesperson for tolerance?


Aug 26, 2020, 9:41 AM

It seems like you're accusing her of hypocrisy, which is fine, but who really cares what Bette Midler thinks? Looks like everyone's calling her a racist now, so the usual system is doing its job.

2024 purple level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

well, obviously she isn't the spokesperson for tolerance...


Aug 26, 2020, 10:15 AM

If she's a hollerer, she'll be a screamer.

Typical and disgusting.

These libs are so stupid they do not even realize the hypocrisy they live in and create.

98% of the chit they do and say is fake. Completely divorced from reality.
